Holy cow, does that say 28 days until little Caleb is here? I can't believe in just a few short weeks, Jermile and I will be parents. I only pray that we both intentionally train our child to love the Lord above all things. Last weekend one of my mom's sweet friends gave us a shower in Birmingham and it was so great to see friends and family. My sweet friends came from all over to celebrate baby Caleb and I came back to SC loaded up! I just had to post some pictures of the decorations because Mrs. Lisa put so much time and effort into making the shower so personal. She made the table cloths herself and made sure everything matched Caleb's room colors. I so appreciate the time she took to make everything so special. From the invitations, to the booties hanging from the chandelier, to the cute little Auburn football (not pictured), she went all out. His crib is here waiting for us to go pick it up and I can't wait to get his room together. Jermile has been working hard to make sure his room is clean as a whistle! We (Jermile) has been shampooing the carpets, cleaning the baseboards, dusting, and cleaning the windows. This apartment has probably never been this clean! Pictures of his room to come when it is all done!
Thank you so much to everyone who made the trip and took the time to come celebrate with us!
She even made sure the cupcakes were color coordinated to his room!
She made this table cloth!
And this one!
Ok, the following picture is random, but let me explain. I have grown a little tired of people (well, my family) saying how terrible my precious dog is going to be with Caleb. I have the utmost faith in her that she is going to be the best big sister ever, because, yes, she is a person. Now, my brother calls me last weekend in total shock and explains what is going on with our cousin's little girl (Caroline) and my precious Beasley. He cannot believe that Beasley has allowed Caroline to first, put her hands on Beasley's treasured food and second, to feed Beasley out of her hand. I am not shocked at all by this, nor was I shocked to see my dog allow this little munchkin to drag her by the tail, try to ride her like a pony and take her (Beasley's) toys without asking. This picture does not do what my dog was doing justice, but it is some proof that she will be gentle and loving and I can put Caleb in the floor and know the worst that could happen is he ends up with a wet face full of kisses from Beas!
